Team Name: The Legends
App Name: ActivEasy
School: River Valley School
Description: ActivEasy is an awesome mobile app that makes it easier to connect people with similar interests through extracurricular activities in Calgary! We find that many of our peers do not participate in extracurricular activities because their parents cannot afford the time to drive them. You can use ActivEasy to search for nearby extracurricular activities to participate in or you can create your very own custom extracurricular activity. ActivEasy allows you to manage your activity schedule and to share them with your friends. ActivEasy will also allow you and your friends who are going to the same activity to coordinate carpooling.

2nd Place Award
Team Name: CCE
App Name: GREEN
School: West Island College
Description: Our mission is to create a better understanding of small-scale gardening and agriculture. The problem is that many people today do not have a good understanding of how to grow healthy plants. Our app GREEN is designed to help people gain a greater knowledge of gardening while guiding them through the process. In doing so, they can improve their quality of life by creating nicer environments for themselves and assisting them in growing their own tasty, fresh and nutritious food. The best part is our users can reduce their carbon footprint while enjoying the fruits of their labour.
